[Un-key
and wait for a few
seconds to be
sure no one was involved in a conversation]

[Key up]

"This
is [________], net control for the Raleigh County ARES/RACES Emergency
Net."

[Pause]

"This
is a directed emergency net for liaison stations from all Raleigh
County
ARES/RACES regions."

Unless you have emergency traffic, please transmit
only when requested by the NCS

When
you check-in, and you wish to leave
before
the NC secures the net, you must contact NC and ask permission. (NC has
you logged in as a participant and if necessary would contact you. If
you
leave the net without getting permission, NC will not know that you
have
left. and if it would be necessary for NC to contact you and you are
not
there, that would slow down the net or possibly loose trafficability in
your area. However, later, later finding out that your station went off
air without you control, you would be excused.)

Check-in
with your call sign, your
name, and your
location. If you have traffic, check in the appoporate catigory :
Emergency Traffic, Priority, With or without traffic.

Do not
state "in-and-out" or "anything
pertaining
to ''head count''. If you have nothing to add to the net, just check-in
and wait to be called on till the net is secured. If you have traffic
and
when you are finished with your traffic, state your call sign and then
state "back to the net' otherwise you are still "on the floor!".

[A note to
NCSs: If a station
fails to close their traffic with the above proceidure, ask that person
if they are done - if yes - then ask them to sign and state "back to
thew
net"; if no, ask them to proceed further. This way you can keep order
and
leagle with the net.]

Any
stations with emergency traffic only, please call now
and
state "emergency" after stating your call sign, name and location.

[Wait]

Any
stations with priority traffic only, please call now
and
state "priority" after stating your call sign, name and location.

[Wait]

All
other stations with or without traffic, please call now and state "With
traffic" or "Without traffic" after stating your call sign, name and
location.
Note folks that if you say "Without traffic" you still have to ask for
permission to leave the net.

[Wait]

CLOSING:

I would
like to thank all stations that checked in.

This is
[__________] securing the Raleigh County ARES/RACES Emergency
Net at [date and time] returning the [repeater or frequency] to regular
amateur radio use.
